I'll be putting the Mouse in school on a stay at home day and taking the Bear for a little one-on-one Daddy-Daughter time, sometime next week. This is something that I'd intended to build into the budget (it costs an extra $50 for the unscheduled school day) and do on a monthly basis, yet I've not once planned such a day. A primary positive, in fact one of the main reasons I did this SAHD thing when I did, was to spend more time with the Bear before she starts the 5-day a week Kindergarten grind next Fall and from there at least 12 more years of constant schooling. I saw this school year as my last chance for mid-week bonding with the girl and I've wasted, I feel, 5 months of it. Anyway, that ends this month as the monthly getaways with the Bear will commence in February.
